[rt-users] RTFM: Editing CustomField / Add a value right

[Thomas Muehlstrasser]

Thank you Kenn,

but I am afraid there was a misunderstanding. My question was on the Custom Fields of the RT FAQ
Manager (RTFM) and not on the Custom Fields of tickets and queues. Or do the rights on Custom
Fields of the RT FAQ Manager interact with those of tickets and queues?

Regards
Thomas
